Peasants, Princes and Pestilence

Spring 2020 Term

Year 5! Flee your fields, close your doors and pull up the drawbridge: the dreaded and deathly ‘Great Pestilence’ is here! You will be learning about the deadly world of 14th century Britain, sword and shield at the ready, pledging your allegiance to king and country. In this History project, you will read and write historical counts, poems and tales, discover the grotesque effects of bugs and bacteria on the human body and you will learn the art of sword fighting and hand to hand combat!
